The Wizard (Bentley Wittman)

The Wizard (Bentley Wittman), also known as the Wingless Wizard, is a fictional character, a comic book supervillain in the Marvel Comics universe. He first appeared as an enemy for the Human Torch.

He is a genius and was a child prodigy and chess champion. As an adult, he became an inventor of great renown, selling his futuristic inventions to the wealthy and becoming quite rich. Boredom was ultimately the cause for him to assume The Wizard persona and pursue a life of crime.

He is most often seen as the leader of The Frightful Four, a team of villains that oppose the Fantastic Four. The other members are The Sandman, The Trapster and a fluctuating fourth member - two of which have been Medusa (of the Inhumans) and Thundra.
